    The Matzner Bear as a fountain figure is on the main square in Matzen. The stone sculpture depicts a sitting bear holding the Matzen coat of arms in its paws.
    The coat of arms shows a bear in the upper half, an abbot's staff and a criss-crossed cattle chain in the lower half. The bear comes from the coat of arms of the Hauser family, who owned the Matzen rule in the 15th century. The abbot's staff and the chain refer to Saint Leonhard. He is particularly venerated as a cattle patron among the rural population.
